With the November 14 U.S. opening of MGM’s new James Bond film, Quantum Solace, Capitol/EMI announces an expanded CD, CD/DVD and digital release of The Best Of Bond… James Bond on October 28.
I just finished listening to the CD that goes with the package. What tantalizing, uplifting tunes! There are 23 musical standouts from the Bond franchise; plus a previously unreleased bonus track of the “James Bond Theme”by John Arnold.
Take a look at the list of classic and contemporary Bond themes by music superstars including Paul McCartney and Wings’ “Live & Let Die,” Madonna’s “Die Another Day,” Duran Duran’s chart-topping “A View To A Kill,” Shirley Bassey’s “Goldfinger,” Tina Turner’s “GoldenEye,” kd lang’s “Surrender,” Sheryl Crow’s “Tomorrow Never Dies,” Chris Cornell’s “You Know My Name,” Carly Simon’s “Nobody Does It Better,” and Tom Jones’ “Thunderball,” among many others. John Arnold’s previously unreleased “James Bond Theme” closes the collection.
